By focusing on its material form as well as representations of kimono in texts and images both within Japan and beyond its borders, this research group intends to reveal how shifts in the design and use of the physical garment and its representation in multiple media throughout this one-hundred-year span were intimately tied to the Japanese nation's evolving status in a dynamic global setting. The multi-disciplinary research group comprises four members; two Americans and two Japanese. Terry Milhaupt investigates chronological shifts in kimono design by examining the materials and decorative techniques involved in the production of kimono for domestic and international consumption. Sarah Frederick analyzes representations of kimono in American and Japanese literature and popular media. Keiko Suzuki focuses on kimono made for export, as tourist art, souvenirs for foreigners, and kimono produced and consumed in foreign countries. Rie Mori investigates the experiences and consciousness of those who wear kimono, and considers how the kimono was perceived both within Japan as well as in its colonized territories. As the leader of the group, Mori will integrate the research team's results, and position their findings within the broader scholarly debates of gender, Orientalism, and nationalism}, title = {20世紀における「きもの」文化の近代化と国際化 : 物質文化・表象文化の視点から}, year = {2010} }
